The Lisbon Tournament.

Inc LISBON tournament.
LISBON, Dak., July 19.-The second
day of the tournament closed tonight
LaMoure, who won from jamestown yes
terday, played with South Ransom this
morning and was defeated by score Of
IA to 12. The game we'll contested
throughout. Ft. Ransom seems to be
one of the strongest clubs on the ground
They will probably play with jamestown
today. ..... f.
jamestown played her second game
this afternoon. Lisbon was her oppo-
nent, and won by score of 81 to 20: The
game was marked by heavy batting and
loose fielding on both sides. Up to the
eighth inning the game was about evenly
contested; in that inning, however, Lis
bon made 8 runs and practically won
the game. Nashold and Weber were
played as the Ft. Stewards battery for
several innings, but after liberal pound
ing Marrell and Nichols we're substituted.
The score by innings is as follows:
Jamestown. .......2 4 4 2 2 0 ! 2 80
Lisbon ......... 6 3 2 l l 1 8 x-27
HOW THE GAMES STAND.
During the past two days four games
have been played. The result up
to tonight is as follows: Lisbon: won 2.
lost 0; South Ransom: won l, lost 0; La
Moure: won l, lost l; Ludden: won 0,
lost l; Jamestown: won @, lost 2. As
will be seen Lisbon has the best record
and stands a good chance for the flag, but
the game with South Ransom and La
Moure may greatly change the aspect of
the matter. jamestown seems out of the
race.
LISBON, July 2O.-The game this morn
ing was between Lisbon and South Ran
som. It was easily won by the former
by score of 80 to 10. In the afternoon
jamestown and South Ransom played an
exciting game, which resulted in another
defeat for the boys from the Jim. The
loss of the game is laid to the umpire
who was manifestly unfair in his decisions.
The score is:
jamestown 3 8 0 0 3 2 2 PIG
So. Ransom4 2 l 2 / 5 3 2 1-21
As the games now stand, Lisbon has
won 3, South Ransom 2, La Moure l
Ludden and jamestown none. Lisbon
has lost none, South Ransom, La Moure
and Ludden, each and jamestown g.
Ludden did not show up after the first
game and in case the other games sched-
uled are declared forfeited, South Ran
som Tia MOnre and jamestown will add
one each to their games won and Ludden
3 on games lost. Lisbon and La Moure
play tomorrow and in case the latter wins
tie will exist between the first three
clubs, if the forfeited Ludden games
are counted. Should Lisbon win, she
will capture the flag and first prize, and
Fl. Ransom and La Moure follow second
and third.
Desperate Prize Fight.

Bill Dacey fought with hard gloves for

declared the winner. Only few persons
saw the mill, the matter having been kept
very quiet on account of fear of police
interference. Notwithstanding the fact
that Hopper looked wholly out of condi-
ton he wa made hot favorite in the
betting. Hopper weighed 136 and Dacey
1929.
